Biography
After returning from a trip to the Amazon, searching for the black orchid, he was deranged and disfigured. He had been captured, tortured and mutilated by the natives in the jungle. A friendly tribe led by Latoni returned him home where the engagement was cancelled.
Lady Cranleigh locked him up in a secret section of the house for two years to keep him safe from the outside world with the help of Latoni and one of their servants Digby.
George was still in love with Ann and so stalked her round the house and murdered Digby and another servant called James. He captured Nyssa, mistaking her for Ann, took her to the roof and was followed by Charles and the Doctor, but soon realised it was not Ann. He returned Nyssa to the Doctor but then fell from the roof to his death. He was the author of the book Black Orchid. (DW: Black Orchid)
